"We really need to whack Joe Biden before he becomes president!"
That's okay, right? Because it's just a children's game, right? Or is it interpreted differently depending on who the target is? Nazis, whacking them is just a game. Leftists, whacking them is srs bsns?

Did you read the full quote or not? The context matters not the targets (in this case a singular target changes the context). There is only one Joe Biden, so they way you are using it has a different context. If it was about whacking lib-trolls from your news group, that's different than specifying a person.
Maybe you aren't a native english speaker, but whack-a-mole is a common carnival game. That's the context in the quote YOU picked.
Can you show me where "whack-a-mole" is mentioned in the original comment? It's something that exists only in your mind to excuse a call for murder.
"Singular target changes the context". Okay, so "Man, Hitler sure was really good at playing whack-a-Jew, wasn't he?" This is okay by your "logic", right?
The context of the "whack Nazis" comment was the worst day of domestic terrorism and murder in American history. I don't think anyone was playing carnival games at the Capitol last week, but maybe we should go ask them? Maybe the whole thing was just a misunderstood carnival game!
